Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Protect Against Label Risks

NHTSA’s two Equipment recalls address information that drivers rely on when selecting tires, wheels, and carrying loads. Certain Titans have incorrect seating-capacity information on the tire placard, which may encourage overloading and increase crash likelihood. Other affected vehicles have certification labels that omit rim-size information, potentially leading to an incorrect tire-and-wheel combination and increased crash risk. Waiting can leave the vehicle’s safety information unresolved, especially if you have received a notice or cannot confirm a prior repair. A prompt VIN check identifies whether either campaign applies and helps you move toward the free manufacturer remedy.
